Unreviewed
Thursday, February 28th, 2008In the March issue of Maxim, the magazine “reviewed” one of my favorite bands, The Black Crowes, upcoming album Warpaint. The album was rated two-and-a-half stars out of five.
Later, the band posted on it’s own web site that the writer for Maxim hadn’t heard the entire album and had only heard one song. Reason being: advanced copies of the album weren’t available.
In the magazines words, the review was an “educated guess”.
I don’t really think you can fairly call that a review now, can you?
